TheIceFlakerwarrantyisvoidifitisinstalled
inambientroomtemperaturesbelow50°F.
TheIceFlakermustbelocatedaboveasanitary
sewerfloordrainhubortrenchdraintoensure
properdrainagetothefloor.Manydesigners
slopefloorstothesanitarysewerinletsto
manage
thesewetareas.
IfinstallingtheIceFlakerwithaHoweIceBin,
ensurethatthebinisadequatelysecuredtothe
floorsoastopreventtheassemblyfromtipping
whenempty.
WaterSupplyRequirements
ColdwatersupplytotheIceFlakermustbe
totallyseparateandunaffectedbyanylocalhot
watersupply.
Thiscoldwatersupplymustbewithintherange
of45°Fto90°F.

StraightReverseOsmosis(RO)treatedwater
shouldneverbesuppliedtotheIceFlaker.
ROsystemtreatedwaterisaggressivetoward
metalsandplatedsurfaces.InadditionRO
waterwillaffectthelifeandintegrityofrubber
andplasticmaterialIceFlakercomponents.If
onlyROwaterisavailable,Post‐
ROtreatment
mustbeprovidedtoraisepHandmineral

Generally,filtrationofcoldsupplywateris
recommended.Howeoffersacompletelineof
